COMMUNICATIONS
Numbers your product owns,
ordered in your portal
A number is a resource like any other on this platform: ordered in your portal, held on the account, and reachable by the key you already hold. Calls and SMS, in and out.
1 capability in communications
One agreement underneath, one adapter, and every capability in this area reachable from the key you already hold.
WHAT IT COSTS
A telecom communications API charged per number, not per capability
This area is the exception to the shape the rest of the catalogue uses.
- A monthly fee per number
- Every capability elsewhere carries one monthly fee however much you use it. A number is a resource you hold, so the fee is per number and it starts when the number is issued.
- Usage on top
- Calls and messages are metered as they happen, in their own units, and land on the same invoice as everything else.
- Nothing for a test number
- Test numbers are available immediately, carry no fee and need no verification. Nothing you do with one is billed.
- Release it and it stops
- A number you release stops its fee that day. There is no term and no notice period on this area either.
